VISUAL PROMPT

Tasked with hosting your friend's engagement celebration, you throw an elaborate party in a forest.
Gather ‘Round
What a lovely day
To celebrate everything—
the trees,
the people,
the ground,
the animals,
the Sun,
the Earth,
everything.
We’ll settle in the forest,
where it all began
It must be perfect
Everyone’ll see—
lanterns and candles
All ‘round
Set the table
With wooden plates
Everyone gets one
As well as a chair
Let the nature seep through the lights
Let the guests soak up the sunlight
Let the wind dance through the trees
Prepare the feast—
berries,
pies,
every kind of meat,
desserts
Something for every kind
Birds,
foxes,
bears,
squirrels,
deer,
owls,
insects,
rabbits,
raccoons,
wolves,
snakes,
toads,
porcupines,
mice.
They’d all be there
And so,
we’ll gather ‘round the table
